The moon and the Earth attract each other, with equal gravitational forces.

That may not sound too surprising.
But what do you think of THIS one:

-- You and the Earth attract each other, with equal gravitational forces.

-- Your weight on Earth is the same as the Earth's weight on you.

An insulated rigid tank contains 3 kg of H2O in the form of a saturated mixture of liquid and vapor at a pressure of 150 kPa and

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

change in entropy is 1.44 kJ/ K

Explanation:

from steam tables

At 150 kPa

specific volume

Vf = 0.001053 m^3/kg

vg = 1.1594 m^3/kg

specific entropy values are

Sf = 1.4337 kJ/kg K

Sfg = 5.789 kJ/kg

initial specific volume is calculated as

$v_1 = vf + x(vg - vf)$

$= 0.001053 + 0.25(1.1594 - 0.001053)$

$v_1 = 0.20964 m^3/kg$

$s_1 = Sf + x(Sfg)$

$= 1.4337 + 0.25 \times 5.7894 = 2.88 kJ/kg K$

FROM STEAM Table

at 200 kPa

specific volume

Vf = 0.001061 m^3/kg

vg = 0.88578 m^3/kg

specific entropy values are

Sf = 1.5302 kJ/kg K

Sfg = 5.5698 kJ/kg

constant volume so $v_1 - v_2 = 0.29064 m^3/kg$

$v_2 = v_1 = vf + x(vg - vf)$

$=0.29064 = x_2(0.88578 - 0.001061)$

$x_2 = 0.327$

$s_2 = 1.5302 + 0.32 \times 5.5968 = 3.36035 kJ/kg K$

Change in entropy $\Delta s = m(s_2 - s_1)$

=3( 3.36035 - 2.88) = 1.44 kJ/kg

How do Swati and Banks adjust their body position during a skydiving jump so they can fall at the same rate?

Wittaler [7]

Sky diving involves free fall under gravity along with the drag due to air molecules pushing against the body slowing the rate of fall of a body. This is actually a significant amount of force. The drag force depends on the contact surface area and weight of the body. More the surface area in contact, more would be the drag. The sitting position of the skydiver would experience less drag than the chest down position. This is because of the less contact surface area of the body with the air molecules while in the former case. Since no two persons have identical body shape and weight, the rate of fall can be made nearly equal but not exactly equal. This is would be possible when they are having same body position.

A car of mass m push = 1200 kg is capable of a maximum acceleration of 6.00 m / s 2 . If this car is required to push a stalled

motikmotik

first you find the maxium force that the car can produce.

f=ma

Fmax=(1100kg)(6m/s^2)

then use f = ma again to find the accel with the passengers

Fmax=(1100kg +1650kg)(a)

=> a = (1100kg)(6m/s^2)/( 1100kg +1650kg)

= 2.4 m/s^2
